CSR plc (LSE: CSR)(NASDAQ: CSRE) today announced, together with the
Telecom Council of Silicon Valley, the speaker line-up and agenda for
its sixth annual Locations
& Beyond Summit to be held Tuesday, December 11, 2012, at the
Crown Plaza Hotel in Palo Alto, California. Joep van Beurden, CEO of
CSR, will provide the fireside chat, while Andreas Winckler, senior
advanced technology engineer at BMW Group will deliver the keynote
address.

The Summit, this year called "Locations & Beyond: Mobile Forum,” is
designed to convene top experts in location and connectivity to explore
the topics of indoor location and resulting use cases, as well as CSR’s
Location-as-a-Service (LaaS) roadmap. The agenda, speaker details, and
additional information are available at www.locationsandbeyond.net;
here is the line-up at a glance:

Roger Lanctot, associate director in the Global Automotive
Practice of Strategy Analytics, will open the Summit with a market
update to set the context for understanding the changes and
possibilities for mobile and wireless innovations in the location
market.

Andreas Winckler, senior advanced technology engineer at BMW
Group Technology Office, will discuss during his keynote address the
widespread adoption of advanced driver assistance systems, and examine
ways in which carmakers can redefine their roles in the location-based
services (LBS) market using the exploding volume of data generated by
vehicle sensors.

Laurie Lamberth, founder and vice president of business
development at Laurie Lamberth and Associates, will moderate “Location
Creation,” a panel about location technologies for smartphones and
other mobile devices, including enhancements to satellite-based
positioning as well as techniques for high-precision outdoor location
and the new varied approaches for indoor positioning.

Steve Augustino, partner at Kelley, Drye and Warren, will
moderate “Location Services 2.0,” a panel designed to explore the next
step in the LBS ecosystem: once position is determined, what can be
done with the resulting data, how to manage privacy, how LBS can and
should be architected, provisioned and delivered for various use
cases, and innovative new applications that can utilise location
technology for user satisfaction and business profitability.

In past years, one of the most popular elements of the Summit has been
the Fast-Pitch sessions – this year, called “Rapid Fire” – in which
companies present their new location-based offerings. This year’s
sessions – five minutes each – will be moderated by Paul Asel,
managing partner of Nokia Growth Partners. Companies presenting
include Urban Airship, Locaid Technologies, InvisiTrak, Pole Star USA,
Mosaik Solutions, and Alohar Mobile.

“Our industry has really only tapped the surface in delivering indoor
location technology and the resulting applications,” according to Dr.
Steven D. Gray, chief technology officer for CSR. “There's far more to
be done to increase precision and deliver new classes of devices,
platforms, and services in order to provide offerings that are
beneficial to both consumers and businesses. At this year’s summit, we
will seek to help chart a course for organisations wishing to tap this
enormous potential.”

This year, CSR is offering a product showcase event for companies in the
location industry wishing to demonstrate their products at the Summit; a
limited number of spaces are still available. Sponsorship information is
available at www.locationsandbeyond.net
